I broke into the industry pulling flatbed. I liked it alot. Lifting those Western Express tarps will make you a lot stronger. I liked the challenge of securing different loads. Coils were my favorite. When I was fired from a local job that I had, I ended up pulling dry van because I needed a job. I would have done anything at that point. I started pulling reefers a year and a half ago, with a little flatbed work sprinkled in there, but I love hauling reefers and I settled in my niche. I will agree with previous posters that there is a brotherhood among open deck flatbedders, especially since there are so many methods that people learn to secure loads, so there is always endless knowledge.
Those who left flatbed , why did you do it?
